County Hall, Portlaoise

County Hall (Irish: Áras an Chontae, Port Laoise) is a municipal facility in Portlaoise, County Laois, Ireland.

History

Originally meetings of Laois County Council were held in Portlaoise Courthouse. After the courthouse became inadequate, a purpose-built facility was built in May 1982. An extension, linked to the existing County Hall building by a single storey glazed corridor, was completed in 2007.
